0:51Now PlayingUS Vice President JD Vance said a prolonged government shutdown would likely snarl travel during the busy holiday period, as the administration seeks to ramp up pressure on Democrats over the funding standoff.
Vance’s comments followed a roundtable at the White House with aviation industry leaders on Thursday.
Attendees included United Airlines Holdings Inc. Chief Executive Officer Scott Kirby, American Airlines Group Inc. CEO Robert Isom, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, and former Republican New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu, who is now chief executive officer of industry trade group Airlines for America.
Vance told reporters “it could be a disaster” if the shutdown extends into the Thanksgiving travel season. Duffy underscored the point, noting that flight disruptions would likely be worse in November because it’s a busier time for air travel than October.
